This country was original founded as a white country; non-whites were excluded until about the 1950s. The "melting pot" originally meant a melting pot of European ethnic groups.
Do you think the founders thought, "let's make a country for white people?" There was a struggle to allow for slavery back then, let alone after the civil war. This is why it was penned "all men are created equal by his creator" not all whites, the constitution was written against NOT for slavery.
So, white people?
What the hell does that comment mean?
